Tuna and like species resources are like other renewable resources. The level of exploitation of these resources dramatically affects their ability to maintain their numbers and abundance in the water. Fishery management policy should be conducted based on a scientific-based approach. This research aims to collect data related to tuna fisheries and the like, including data collection aspects of coaching, the composition of catches, and the biology of tuna catches in 2020. Research location in North Sumatra. The results showed that the estimated value of skipjack tuna (SKJ) of 232,823 tons, yellowfin tuna (YFT) of 23,682 tons, frigate tuna (FRI) is 40,949 tons, and Kawakawa (KAW) is 1,374 tons. SKJ, as of 6.149 samples, have length class 18-60 cmFL, CPUE highest in April and lowest in August. FRI of 1.619 samples with a lengthy class between 17-44 cmFL, CPUE highest in October and lowest in December. YFT of 1.060 samples with a lengthy class 18-60 cm, CPUE highest in April and lowest in March. Kawakawa of the 1.530 samples has length class 25-54 cm, with the highest CPUE in April and lowest in March and July.

Abstract Effective use of spatial management in the pelagic realm presents special challenges due to high fish and fisher mobility, limited knowledge and significant governance challenges. The tropical Indian Ocean provides an ideal case study for testing our ability to apply existing data sources to assessing impacts of spatial management on tuna fisheries because of several recent controversial spatial closures. We review the scientific underpinnings of pelagic MPA effects, spatio-temporal patterns of Indian Ocean tuna catch, bycatch and fish movements, and the consequences of these for the efficacy of spatial management for Indian Ocean tropical tuna fisheries. The tropical Indian Ocean is characterized by strong environmental fluctuations, regular seasonal variability in catch, large observed tuna displacement distances, relatively uniform catch-per-unit-effort and bycatch rates over space, and high fisher mobility, all of which suggest significant variability and movement in tropical tuna fisheries that are simply not well adapted to static spatial closures. One possible exception to this overall conclusion would be a large time/area closure east of Somalia. If closed for a significant fraction of the year it could reduce purse-seine bycatch and juvenile tuna catch. Dynamic closures following fish migratory patterns are possible, but more focused information on fish movements will be needed for effective implementation. Fortunately, several recent improvements in conventional fishery management and reporting will likely enhance our ability to evaluate spatial and non-spatial management options in the near future, particularly as pertaining to bycatch species.

The biological aspect is a piece of basic information that is commonly presented in assessing the level of environmental friendliness of fishing gear or fishing vessel. This study was conducted to analyze the biological aspects of the main catch of the troll line at the Palabuhanratu Fishing Port, Sukabumi, Indonesia. The biological aspects analyzed consisted of length frequency distribution, length-weight relationship, to the average feasibility status of the caught target fish. There were three main target commodities for fishing from the troll line that was identified during the research activity, namely yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares), skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis), and frigate tuna (Auxis thazard). A total of 14 troll line fleets were obtained as a source of research data based on the accidental sampling method. The total number of 1404 fish consisting of 480 yellowfin tuna, 475 skipjack tuna, and 449 frigate tuna were obtained as research data objects. The stratified random sampling method was used in determining the observed sample fish data. Yellowfin tuna were distributed at size 29 – 148 cm, skipjack tuna at size 29 – 88 cm, and frigate tuna at size 23 – 82 cm. Analysis of the length-weight relationship showed a negative allometric growth pattern in the three main fishing target commodities. The analysis of the feasibility of the average fish caught based on compared of L50% to ½ L∞ shows that the average size of tuna and frigate tuna caught is undersize for catching, while the average skipjack caught has reached a legal size. The results of this study indicate that there is a need for a review of the use of fishing hooks in the fishing activity of the troll line fishing fleet. Increasing the hook size can be used to avoid catching fish that are at a size that is not suitable for catching.

The declining trend of Yellowfin Tuna Thunnus albacares production in Fishery Management Territory of Indonesia 714 nowadays will affect the demand for tuna products in Indonesia and global. Regarding the management purposes, the impact of fishing needs to be minimized. Therefore, the estimation of population structure based on the length and age is very important to be studied. The data were collected from November 2015 to October 2016 from longline and handline catching activities operated in the Banda Sea. The average length of yellowfin tuna caught with longline and handline was 98.5 cm and the first length maturity was Lm 103.6 cm. The result showed that the first yellowfin tuna caught was Lc_opt 125.2 cm, where fishing mortality ratio toward natural mortality was at the level that endangered the sustainability of yellowfin tuna fisheries in the Banda Sea. To minimize the impact, there needs to be a minimum size regulation of yellowfin tuna that should be landed

Tuna fisheries are the most valuable fisheries in the world, with an estimated market value of at least US$42 billion in 2018. Indonesia plays an important role in the global tuna fisheries and has committed to improve its fisheries management; therefore, a pilot of long-term spatial-temporal data bases was developed in 2012, however none have utilized data to have better understanding for management improvement. In this study, the annual and seasonal variation of large (≥10 kg) Yellowfin Tuna (YFT) catch per unit effort (CPUE) have been investigated and the influence of sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll-a on these variables examined. We used fish landing data from West Nusa Tenggara recorded every month between 2012 and 2017 and analyzed using generalized linear models and generalized additive models. We found a seasonal and annual pattern of tuna abundance affected by SST and chlorophyll-a (chl a) and related to upwelling and El Nino event. These results also suggest that a two-month closure to fishing in August and September in southern Lombok is worth considering by the Government to maximize conservation of stocks due to a high abundance of juveniles emerging during the upwelling months from June to August.

Troll and hand line tuna fisheries is one of the major fishing gears landed in Labuhan Lombok coastal fishing port (PPP Labuhan Lombok) west Nusa Tenggara Barat province.  Both fisheries are strongly associated with fish aggregating devices (FAD’s). The main fishing ground is Indian Ocean southern part of this province.  Several source of data has been collected regularly. Data analysis comprised of monthlycatch and effort data samples based onport monitoring program during 2012 to 2015. The result showed the diclining of CPUE of yellow fin and skipjack tuna presumably related to fishing intensity of fleets and its variability that landed in PPP Labuhan Lombok.  The increasing CPUE of skipjack tuna in 2014 was predicted due to increasing aggregation around the FADs. Constrasting seasonal fishing index pattern between yellowfin and skipjack tuna foundin 4-month cycles, started in January.A length-weight relationship suggested that yellowfin tuna caught bysmall-scale fisheries were performing allometric growth pattern (b=2.963, r2=0.9737).

The wedge sole (Dicologoglossa cuneata, Moreau 1881) is a commercially important species for the artisanal fleet operating off the south-western Iberian Peninsula. During 2004 and 2005 a study was undertaken aiming to provide a scientific basis for management. Data collection included information on aspects of the fishery, spawning season, size at first maturity, tangle and gill-net selectivity. Seven nominal mesh sizes were used (40, 45 and 50 mm tangle nets and 40, 50, 60 and 70 mm gill-nets). Spawning lasts from December to June, with peaks in March and May. Length at first maturity for females was estimated at 18.5 cm. Catch rates decreased sharply with increasing mesh size, with tangle nets providing the highest yields. The log-normal selectivity model provided the best fit for specimens that were wedged. The higher catch-per-unit-effort of the smaller mesh sizes and the modal length of the fitted selectivity curve being below the size-at-maturity for wedge sole, suggests that the 50 mm nominal mesh size tangle net is the most appropriate for ensuring the fishery sustainability. Nevertheless, the minimum legal size should increase to at least 18 cm and a time–area closure should be implemented off the Guadiana River mouth.

Yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) and bigeye tuna (T. obesus) were tagged and released in the north-western Coral Sea off northern Queensland in 1991 and 1992. Over the next five years, recaptures were reported by Australian longline vessels based in Cairns and fishing in the release area, and by industrial tuna fleets fishing in the adjacent western Pacific region, thus demonstrating clear links between the tuna stocks in these areas. Some southerly movements of yellowfin, in particular, further suggested links with stocks supporting the longline fishery in the south-eastern Australian Fishing Zone. Bigeye tuna tag returns and catch per unit effort by Cairns-based longliners showed a strong seasonal signal, peaking in mid year. Yellowfin tag-return data displayed a similar, but weaker, seasonal pattern. The data were analysed by use of tag-attrition models with seasonally variable catchability and with two assumptions regarding changes in targeting of the two species by longliners during the study. Under both assumptions, the local exploitation rates for yellowfin are low: about 0.07 in 1996. For bigeye, the local exploitation rate in 1996 may have been as high as 0.30, warranting a cautious approach to further fishery expansion in this area.

Data dikumpulkan selama tahun 2004 sampai dengan 2005. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa huhate yang terdapat di Bitung dioperasikan dengan kapal penangkapan yang terbuat dari kayu berukuran 50 sampai dengan 80 GT. Daerah penangkapan di sekitar lokasi rumpon di Laut Sulawesi dan Laut Maluku. Hasil tangkapan yang diperoleh terdiri atas cakalang (Katsuwonus pelamis), madidihang (Thunnus albacares), baby tuna (Thunnus spp.), dan tongkol (Auxis spp.) serta hasil tangkapan sampingan yaitu lemadang (Coryphaena hippurus) dan sunglir (Elagatis bipinnulatus). Hasil analisis catch per unit of effort diperoleh bahwa nilai catch per unit of effort baby tuna (Thunnus spp.) mengalami kenaikan pada bulan Agustus 2004, dan cakalang (Katsuwonus pelamis) mengalami kenaikan pada bulan September 2004. Hasil analisis terhadap ukuran pertama kali cakalang (Katsuwonus pelamis) tertangkap oleh huhate 49,3 FLcm. Ukuran ini lebih panjang dibandingkan ukuran pertama kali cakalang (Katsuwonus pelamis) matang gonad. Sedangkan hasil analisis terhadap ukuran pertama kali madidihang (Thunnus albacares) tertangkap oleh huhate 51,6 FLcm. Ukuran ini lebih pendek dibandingkan ukuran pertama kali madidihang (Thunnus albacares) matang gonad. This paper presents the status of pole and line fishery in Bitung of North Sulawesi, consisting of description of fishing gear, fishing ground, catch composition, catch per unit of effort, and length at first capture. Data were collected during the period of 2004 until 2005. Results show that the pole and line in Bitung operated by wooden vessels of 50 until 80 GT. The fishing grounds were the waters around FADs location in Sulawesi Sea and Maluku Sea. Catch composition consists of skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis), yellow fin tuna (Thunnus albacares), baby tuna (Thunnus spp.), and frigate tuna (Auxis spp.), while the bycatch consisted of dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus) and rainbow runner (Elagatis bipinnulatus). Catch per unit of effort analysis shows that catch per unit of effort value of baby tuna (Thunnus spp.) increased on August 2004, whereas catch per unit of effort value of skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) increased on September 2004. The length at first capture of skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) was 49,3 FLcm. The catch size was bigger than the length at first maturity for skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis). The length at first capture of yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) was 51,6 FLcm. This catch size was smaller than the length at first maturity for yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares).
